This
single CD ROM MegaDisc puts more than seven hours of digitally recorded,
stereo sound effects online, for use with Macintosh computers, PC computers
and Silicon Graphics workstations. Let your imagination roam through
this vast collection of sounds. Cars, trains, jets, animals, birds,
comedy, crowds, fire, water and wind: more than 1,200 effects in all
are right here - royalty free! Each sound was transferred digitally
at the 16bit, 44.1kHz CD standard specification. But, thanks to the
"Aware" high quality software audio compression, the Sound Ideas SPEED
OF SOUND Library offers more than six times the storage capacity of
standard audio CDs. It's like getting six CDs in one, yet you don't
need a special CD ROM drive or special audio hardware to play it!
OnLine Search and Retrieval: Sounds can be quickly retrieved by name
or by partial word searches. Onscreen display of descriptive captions
makes it easy to pick the sound that matches your requirements. Double-clicking
on any file name instantly auditions it. For compatibility with a wide
variety of Macintosh, PC and Silicon Graphics multimedia applications,
sounds can be retrieved from the library in a choice of sampling rates
(44.1, 22.05 and 11.025 kHz), resolutions (16 or 8 bits) and industry
standard formats (AIFF, AIFFC, WAV, or OMF).
